Click here to go to the beginning of this storyline.
Here’s more info on the art on this page:
The Temptation of Christ - This was the one picture that I never made an on site sketch of. But I needed something to represent Christianity.
An Assortment of African Masks - These masks don’t technically belong here as they represent social structures rather than gods or other spiritual beings, but I wanted to put them in somewhere.
Buddha - At least I think its Buddha. I never could find a picture of it on the website.
Ganesha - I know almost nothing about Hindu religions.
The Three Nymphs - I just had to throw in some nymphs somewhere.
The Bodhisattva Kuan-yin - A Bodhisattva is a Buddha who has turned down Nirvana until everybody else is enlightened.
And the whole “Six billion people, no one thing can work for all of them” is not an original thought. It’s based on something the Dalai Lama said, although I don’t have the exact quote.

I won’t be at the Sequential Artists’ Pub tonight because of preparations for 24 Hour Comic Day, but that doesn’t mean YOU shouldn’t be there. Here’s the skinny:
This Friday (10PM EST), featured guest Brandon McKinney to the Sequential Artists’ Pub. (You can see a peek of his artwork above.) Brandon is an immensely talented artist - his professional portfolio includes work for Lucasfilm, Marvel Comics, Dark Horse Comics, Electronic Arts, and much, much more. More recently, Brandon’s work appeared on the Army of Two graphic novel.

24 Hout Comic Day is almost here! I will be drawing with my fellow Conspirators at Book Arts in Minneapolis. Due to scheduling conflicts, I will not be able to participate for the full 24 hours, but that does NOT mean I won’t attempt to make a 24-page comic! That’s right, I may have to cut a few corners and use smaller pages, but I will attempt to complete a 24-page comic in 14 hours or less.
You can follow our progress at our official 24-hour comic website. I will also be chronicling my slow descent into madness on Twitter. Check it for hourly updates!

We stand on the verge of the most important election in history. Faced with an economy in shambles and a war that will seemingly never end, now is the time for the citizens of this nation to take action! Now is the time to let your voice be heard! Now is the time to decide who will replace Soapy the Chicken!
I vote for Frog, and I approve this message.

There’s a short clip of me talking about Zinefest on MTN Access to Art. It’s in the 3rd video clip.
It’s also rare footage of the goatee I no longer have.

Fallcon has come and gone.
It was awesome.
But also exhausting.
Now the healing can begin.

It’s going to be awesome. You should go there.
Seriously.
I’ll be at the Cartoonist Conspiracy lounge. I’m also going to be talking at the Cartoonist Conspiracy panel at 1:00 on Saturday.
